1883-CC GSA Morgan ~ Need another opinion.((NOW FOR SALE))

[FroggyHopper]

Hey everyone!

 

I am debating on sending this coin in. The reverse I am already 99% sure on so I am just linking the obverse. The rim looks a little raw so it's throwing me off. Let me know what you think. =)

 

 

 

Thank you!

Surfaces look like MS-65! But I can't read the luster.

 

Is it really 19... 83 ?

[FroggyHopper]

Haha! Fixed! It's early here =) It has a nice luster. On the pic there is a shadow towards the bottom, but the coin has the same luster all over the obverse. It's a GSA which is why I was considering sending it in, but NGC has left me second guessing myself a few times.

Pic is a little bright but using it, I would say MS64-65. Don't think the rim nics should stop it from grading.

[FroggyHopper]

Here is a darker pic.

 

Any toning you see on the rims are part of the reverse. It's completely toned. Also, a cool thing that I like about this coin, in natural light you can see pink in the hair.

 

[bsshog40]

Better pic. I'm sticking with my original guess MS64-65

1883-What? Is it a CC? We need to see the reverse.

I don't like that rim bump at 2:30, but the surfaces are clean enough for a 65.

[C.I.]

Minimal marks gives it a good shot at MS65. A bit flatter hair above ear and forehead but that might just be the photo. These areas are sometimes difficult to pick up with a photo. Normally, rims are not an issue with GSA's as they are somewhat covered by the package. This one though is visible.and might cause a second look.

 

I would like to see the reverse as well. Let's Vam it!. MS65.

MS64 do to the rim hit and the few scattered marks.

[FroggyHopper]

Since you guys want to see it I will put up the reverse. I am fairly confident on the grade though. Here are a few with different lighting.

 

You can't tell because of the pic with the toning but the breast feathers are all there.

 

Natural light at an angle to show tones.

 

 

Pics show up a lot of brown but it is actually more purple.

MS64 due to wear above the ear and the brow. Pretty clean fields (That's what is saving this coin from a MS63)

The old gal has the face of at least a MS-64, outside chance at going gem.

Happy for your GOOD luck!!

[Kurtdog]

Yeah, congrats. It's good to see a GSA getting the nod at gem. What kind of GSA holder is that in?

I thought so. When they had color on them GSA had a hard time calling them "Uncirculated." I just love it when these make it to MS-65!

[FroggyHopper]

Yeah, I know! It was a great find. =) A GSA that doesn't say uncirculated grading so well, I love it! That's why I took a second, third, fourth, ninety-ninth look at it, I had a feeling it would grade well. Plus the purple/pink toning on the reverse, exciting!
